If Mark was so up on discipline, and consider the Crowder boys a problem, then why is Mark and Sis trying so hard to grt the Crowder boys back? And he scheduled tje weakest teams he could find > And I did hear that as of right now they don"t have enough boys to play.

There you go again. It is obvious that you do not like Mark Martin but please, engage your brain before inserting your foot in your mouth.

About the Crowders, if they want to play they should be welcomed. Everyone deserves a second chance. I hope they do - this would be great for Allen Central Basketball - it would be the start of a new basketball year and a new beginning for all concerned. The coach has rules and all players must abide by them. It is the Crowders' senior year - of course they should play and I'm sure Coach Martin will do everything he can to encourage them to come out.

Basketball conditioning has not even begun and will not until the 15th of October. The football players that are coming out for the team will still be playing football. Others who do not play football are showing an interest. The Rebels will have a team and hopefully some good supporters out of the local area. I hope this doesn't pain you too much to actually hear that AC will have a boys' basketball team.

Weak teams? Do you mean Prestonsburg, Betsy Layne, South Floyd, Pikeville, Pike Central, Belfry, Magoffin County, Sheldon Clark, and he drew Shelby Valley for the All 'A'. So far that looks pretty weak - wouldn't you agree?

Come on, these are high school boys who will come out and give their best - don't you think you should give them a chance?
